cease_v from_o his_o own_o work_n as_o god_n do_v from_o he_o thus_o christ_n as_o he_o suffer_v the_o six_o day_n of_o the_o week_n the_o same_o day_n that_o man_n be_v create_v and_o fall_v so_o on_o the_o same_o day_n on_o which_o god_n rest_v from_o his_o work_n of_o creation_n viz._n the_o seven_o day_n do_v christ_n rest_n in_o his_o grave_n from_o his_o work_n of_o redemption_n and_o

be_v another_o reason_n for_o the_o continuance_n of_o the_o sabbath_n and_o that_o be_v that_o it_o be_v not_o only_o ordain_v as_o a_o type_n of_o thing_n to_o come_v but_o as_o a_o commemoration_n of_o what_o be_v past_a viz._n of_o god_n rest_n from_o his_o work_n of_o creation_n and_o by_o the_o alteration_n of_o the_o day_n of_o the_o sabbath_n it_o serve_v likewise_o to_o we_o christian_n as_o a_o commemoration_n of_o the_o resurrection_n of_o christ_n and_o his_o conquest_n over_o the_o power_n of_o death_n and_o hell_n it_o be_v the_o first_o day_n in_o which_o light_n be_v create_v

give_v light_n to_o those_o who_o sit_v in_o darkness_n and_o the_o shadow_n of_o death_n by_o the_o joyful_a tiding_n of_o our_o redemption_n from_o hell_n and_o eternal_a bliss_n in_o heaven_n now_o so_o long_o as_o the_o work_v of_o our_o creation_n and_o redemption_n be_v to_o be_v keep_v in_o memory_n so_o long_o be_v the_o sabbath_n to_o continue_v as_o a_o commemoration_n of_o these_o inestimable_a benefit_n and_o by_o the_o same_o reason_n so_o long_o as_o we_o ought_v to_o commemorate_v the_o death_n and_o passion_n of_o our_o lord_n so_o long_o aught_o the_o sacrament_n of_o it_o to_o continue_v which_o he_o institute_v in_o remembrance_n of_o it_o and_o command_v it_o to_o be_v continue_v till_o his_o come_v again_o thus_o you_o see_v that_o there_o be_v sign_n under_o
